Hey..If you really want to know take the test.

28 points (16.4 is average, 80% of autistic persons scored 32 or higher)

But it doesn't say what percentage of non-autistic persons received similarly high scores.

There is also the problem of bias when taking the test: I basically know which answers point to autism and which don't.

You cheated..:)

The test is great food for thought though. Even though it's nothing to do with autism, have you ever noticed in your typical university/college, how much more stilted the engineering students (to pick an example from the hard sciences, no slam on engineers) are socially, than say the lit students?

One of the recurring questions in the test dealt with the inability to socialize. Makes one wonder if an autisitic mind isn't really just too much of a good thing. The arithmatic ability is an exageration of the aforementioned engineering student, and so is the social ineptness. I personally find this fascinating.

23 for me, because I am a girl. We're more social.....

I, too, got a low score.
